About Me
poet and strong woman...hear me roar. Married to a great guy and working everyday to make myself and our relationship stronger. I am a Mom to two wonderful teenage girls and... I can bring home the turkey bacon and fry it up in the pan... I am a Library Technician for one of the largest collegiate libraries in the country and am part of a team responsible for the housing and daily order of over 3 million monographs and journals. I never take myself too seriously as this diminishes my quality of life...which is meant to be lived by the seat of ones pants...I have a lot of good friends and like to have a good time but realize it is time to put the focus on my health and not where the party is...I have a strong will and a mind of my own...and sometimes that offends people but at 41 I believe it is high time I speak my mind and do things my way.

Support Groups
Close Diets & Weight Maintenance
healthymamie hasn’t entered any details for this support group.Close Food Addiction
I love food. Usually I am a gourmand and refuse to eat unhealthy junk food but since I began dieting find myself craving McDonald's and Burger King on a regular basis. I already belong to the weight management group but am finding no a lot of support for food addiction. I want to beat the junk food addiction and the codependency my husband and I have developed over food.
Open Anemia
I have anemia coupled with hypothyroidism. I believe these two factors, more than anything else, have seriously affected the way I feel and my weight. Unsure of anemia type, still figuring it all out.
Treatments
- Dietary Modification Working / Worked
- Hard to say. When I was first diagnosed I tried going the dietary route alone and that was not enough. I had already been eating lots of protein before so this may be why.
- Iron Too Soon to Tell
- don't like the supplements. they don't help me feel better and they have unfortunate side effects. side effects seem to be focused on my bowels. Sometimes it is too loose, sometimes WAY too hard. Never normal anymore.
